Derivatization in Analytical Chemistry
Abstract: Herein, we report a new automated flow method based on zone fluidics for the simultaneous determination of homocysteine and homocysteine thiolactone using fluorimetric detection (lext = 370 nm/lem = 480 nm). Homocysteine thiolactone is hydrolyzed on-line in alkaline medium (1 mol L−1 NaOH) to yield homocysteine, followed by reaction with o-phthalaldehyde in a single step.

Climate, Society And Elemental Insurance Capacities And Limitations
Our climate is being privatised, and with it, our democratic capacity to act in the face of unprecedented risks is being curtailed. Insurance and insurers are central to these changes. The insurance sector, for example, is a major player in global financial markets and is continuously expanding its reach into new places and through novel products.

Chemical, Mineralogical and Isotopic Studies of Diagenesis of Carbonate and Clastic Sediments
Diagenesis of carbonates and clastic sediments encompasses the biochemical, mechanical and chemical changes that occur in sediments after deposition and prior to low-grade metamorphism. Parameters which, to a large extent, control diagenesis in carbonate and clastic sediments include primary composition of the sediments, depositional facies, pore water chemistry, burial-thermal and tectonic evolution of the basin, and paleo-climatic conditions.

Clay-Based Pharmaceutical Formulations and Drug Delivery Systems
The use of minerals as ingredients in health care products is a classical and active pharmaceutical subject. Clays and also zeolites and other silica-based mesoporous inorganic ingredients have been traditionally used as pharmaceutical and cosmetic ingredients. These inorganic ingredients should meet the quality and safety standards to be used as ingredients in health care products.

Chemical Speciation of Organic and Inorganic Components of Environmental and Biological Interest in Natural Fluids
Several different definitions were in the past proposed to describe the term chemical speciation, and some of them were accepted from the scientific community. Some examples of such definitions are as follows: “Chemical speciation can be defined as the process of identification and quantification of the different forms or phases in which an element is present in a material” or as “the description of quantities, types of species, forms or phases present in a material”.

Citizen Science and Geospatial Capacity Building
Abstract: This article introduces the Special Issue on “Citizen Science and Geospatial Capacity Building” and briefly evaluates the future trends in this field. This Special Issue was initiated for emphasizing the importance of citizen science (CitSci) and volunteered geographic information (VGI) in various stages of geodata collection, processing, analysis and visualization; and for demonstrating the capabilities and advantages of both approaches.

State and Trends of Carbon Pricing
The current state of carbon pricing clearly reflects the gap between policies and pledges. While carbon prices reached record highs across a number of ETSs and carbon taxes over the past year, the majority of carbon prices remain significantly below what is needed to achieve net zero by 2050 and meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.
Greater carbon pricing ambition can play a crucial role in closing the policy gap when part of a comprehensive climate policy package and grounded in robust long-term strategies. An increasing interest in cross-border carbon pricing policies reflects attempts to realize such ambition while addressing concerns related to economic competitiveness and carbon leakage.

Data Science Measuring Uncertainties
With the increase in data processing and storage capacity, a large amount of data is available. Data without analysis does not have much value. Thus, the demand for data analysis is increasing daily, and the consequence is the appearance of a large number of jobs and published articles in this area.
